A Video Game Production MBA with ESG
LISAA has joined forces with the ESG MBA to offer a Video Game Production course. The
«producer» supervises the production of a video game and, as such, has a profile that is
technical, managerial, business-orientated and visionary at the same time.
«With the arrival of mobile games and digitally distributed
games, new business models are appearing. This MBA will
therefore also lead to careers in monetization design and game
data science.»
— Joan Da Silva
«We want to teach a particular aspect of this profession. With the arrival of mobile games
and digitally distributed games, new business models are appearing, such as monetization via
advertising, freemium, etc. These games are therefore linked to the big date era: the profiles
and behaviours of players are analysed in order to optimize their experience and find the
best business model. This MBA will therefore also lead to careers in monetization design
and game data science.»
A Game option available from the first year
Finally, students will have the option of choosing a «video game» first year, which will remain
introductory but will offer an intensive learning of digital tools. In particular, students will
begin with script lessons from their very first year. Game enthusiasts will find the course
that meets all their expectations!
